Tandem Operation
(two base stations for two speaker posts)
In Tandem operation, customers at Order Point #1 are served by
Order Taker #1, and customers at Order Point #2 are served by
Order Taker #2. If a customer arrives at Order Point #2 when
there is no customer at Order Point #1, a message will be played
automatically from Speaker Post or Menu Board #2 saying “Please
pull forward.” The message can be set to play one time or to repeat
every 4 seconds until the customer pulls forward to Order Point #1
(See page 15, Red Message Control, Switch 6). When a customer
arrives at Order Point #1, Order Taker #1 will be alerted. If a
customer arrives at Order Point #2 when there is already a
customer at Order Point #1, Order Taker #2 will be alerted.
